During the inflammatory response, interferon(IFN) increases transcription of the gene encoding gp91, a respiratory burst oxidase component. This gene (referred to as the CYBB gene) is transcribed in phagocytic cells differentiated beyond the promyelocyte stage, and transcription continues until cell death. Previous investigations identified a positive regulatory element in the proximal CYBB pro...
X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) derives from defects in the CYBB gene, which encodes the gp91-phox component of NADPH oxidase. We studied the molecular basis of the disease in a kindred with variant CGD, due to a single base substitution at the sixth position of CYBB first intron. The patients' phagocytes have been shown previously to greatly increase superoxide release in response...
In this study, we report a mutation in CYBB gene in a patient with X-CGD (diagnosed on the base of family history, NDT test, DHR 123 assay). Mutation in CYBB gene was detected using SSCP analysis (single-strand conformation polymorphism) followed by sequencing. During screening for mutations in the CYBB gene we observed 880 CT in exon 8. This mutation resulted in 290 ArgStop. We also observed a...
p67(phox) and gp91(phox) are components of the phagocyte-specific respiratory burst oxidase that are encoded by the NCF2 and CYBB genes, respectively. These genes are transcribed exclusively in myeloid cells that have differentiated beyond the promyelocyte stage. In mature phagocytes, NCF2 and CYBB transcription continues until cell death and further increases in response to IFN-gamma and other...
This work investigated the functional role of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) in respiratory burst activity and in expression of the human phagocyte nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase genes CYBB, CYBA, NCF1, and NCF2. U937 cells with a stably transfected repressor of NF-kappaB (IkappaBalpha-S32A/S36A) demonstrated significantly lower superoxide release and lower CYBB ...
Coevolution of intracellular bacterial pathogens and their host cells resulted in the appearance of effector molecules that when translocated into the host cell modulate its function, facilitating bacterial survival within the hostile host environment. Some of these effectors interact with host chromatin and other nuclear components. In this report, we show that the AnkA protein of Anaplasma ph...
Pulmonary eosinophilia is one of the most consistent hallmarks of asthma. Infiltration of eosinophils into the lung in experimental asthma is dependent on the adhesion molecule vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) on endothelial cells. Ligation of VCAM-1 activates endothelial cell NADPH oxidase, which is required for VCAM-1-dependent leukocyte migration in vitro. To examine whether endoth...
The CYBB and NCF2 genes encode the phagocyte respiratory burst oxidase proteins, gp91 and p67. Previously, we identified homologous CYBB and NCF2 cis elements that are necessary for lineage-specific transcription during late myeloid differentiation. We determined that these homologous cis elements are activated by PU.1, IRF1, interferon consensus sequence-binding protein (ICSBP), and the CREB-b...
Mutations in genes for any of the six subunits of NADPH oxidase cause chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), but almost 2/3 of CGD cases are caused by mutations in the X-linked CYBB gene, also known as NAD (P) H oxidase 2. Approximately 260 patients with CGD have been reported in Japan, of whom 92 were shown to have mutations of the CYBB gene and 16 to have chromosomal deletions. However, there h...
The membrane bound NADPH oxidase involved in the synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a multi-protein enzyme encoded by CYBA, CYBB, NCF1, NCF2 and NCF4 genes. Growing evidence suggests a role of ROS in the modulation of signaling pathways of non-phagocytic cells, including differentiation and proliferation of B-cell progenitors. Transcriptional downregulation of the CYBB gene has been ...
